Story-based sticker packs showcase new characters via iMessage and popular social channels

ALISO VIEJO, Calif., Oct. 19, 2016 — (PRNewswire) — Smith Micro Software (NASDAQ:
SMSI) today announced
AniMatesâ„¢ stickers, a newly designed series of characters for mobile messaging available in Apple's new iMessage store as part of the iOS 10 update. The first set of AniMates stickers available include Jaxon, Harper and Milo â€“ a boy, a girl and a dog with their own social media accounts where users can follow their adventures and even participate in the evolution of the characters.

"Stickers are the 'shorthand' for today's generation of mobile users who want more emotion and personality than the text-speak that has evolved with chat-based messaging," said Jonathan Horvath, Senior Director of Product Management at Smith Micro. "AniMates characters are expressive and engaging, so they not only enhance the texting experience, but allow users to participate in the lives of their favorite characters through YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram."
